ADAM’S FAVE FIVE OF SUMMER Get-up: Anything I can get down in! Movie: Finding Nemo Ice cream flavour: Vanilla or homemade sorbet Spot: Pool, ocean, bathtub. All great options Band: The Beach Boys. Still the best! MANIA: What’s your grossest summer smoothie recipe? ADAM: “Nothing compares to a broccoli, banana, mango and egg smoothie! Yummo!” MANIA: Ultimate embarrassing beach moment? ADAM: “I'd like to think I could muscle my way out of being buried neck down in sand. A beach party in 2013 says differently...” MANIA: Gnarliest summer skate trick? ADAM: “The caveman, or maybe a hippy jump. Pretty gnarly!” MANIA: Most massive gut-busting summer meal? ADAM: “Pre-BBQ, I once ate half an onion in 23 seconds!” MANIA: What’s your chillest summer wind-down? ADAM: “Having a cool ice cream cone…

WHO’S ODDBALL? Oddball is the unlikely hero of the little penguins of Middle Island, a small penguin sanctuary off the coast of Victoria! The Maremma sheepdog would look out for foxes while the penguins were asleep! MANIA: They say you should never film a movie with animals but this movie was set on a farm full of them - was it a fun set to be on? SHANE: “It was active and alive! P eople only say that because animals are unpredictable, but if you make time to deal with the weird things they do it’s a really fun job! ” MANIA: Did you get along with Kai, who played Oddball? SHANE: “Yes, if I could have I would have taken him home with me! I don’t think his owner…

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Gets HD Remake! The Wii’s best Zelda game is getting a re-release on the Wii U in March! The game will come packaged with a Wolf Link amiibo if you buy the Special Edition, and will look a lot better than the original! This version is being handled by Tantalus Media, an Aussie developer, which is AWSM news! Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow coming to 3DS! This is a huge blast from the past, YAKs – the first ever Pokémon games are coming to the 3DS Virtual Console in February! We’re not sure how well these games have aged, but we’re keen to give them another play – there were 150 Pokémon to catch back then, and the Elite 4 were way harder! Learn…

Need for Speed Gameplay: The Need for Speed series took a break last year, but now it’s come roaring back on PS4 and Xbox One! This Need for Speed needs you to be online all the time so that you can pass by or race against other players, which we thought was a bit silly, but otherwise the actual racing is pretty fun! We liked driving around town looking for new challenges and competitions, and sliding around corners is always fun. There’s plenty to discover if you explore, although it’s not as big as Forza Horizon 2 was last year! You can tweak and customise your cars if you’re into that, but you don’t need to be into cars to enjoy this one. It’s not the best Need for Speed…

Rayman Adventures Rayman’s back on mobile, with an adventure that plays a bit like his console games! This new game has some confusing controls, but it’s still pretty fun – you run through a heap of levels and try to find as many hidden goodies as you can. This is great fun for Rayman fans! iOS/Android, Platformer, Free SCORE 8/10 LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin The latest LEGO Ninjago game has made the jump from Vita and 3DS to mobile devices! This is a pretty decent LEGO game, but if you’ve played the console games this isn’t as good – we’ve been a bit spoiled by LEGO Dimensions, so it’s hard to go back to the simpler LEGO games now! iOS/Android,Action/Adventure, $7.99 SCORE 7/10 Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes If…

Mario Kart (Wii) “I love playing Mario Kart. All the levels and racetracks are awesome. Bowsers castle is the hardest. I like how you turn into a bullet when you’re the last!” Mario Kart is awesome Sam! Racing with our fave Mario characters is so much fun. Yo, Bowsers' castle is the hardest, but we’re sure you’ll race it! LBX: LIttle Battler's Experience (3DS) “Come for the rad robot action and stay for the totally addictive customisation! There’s nothing like building your own custom LBX to fight for you! The awesome anime cutscenes and heaps of quests help keep you hooked as well!” Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii) “I love playing Super Smash Bros Brawl on the Wii. You choose from about 50 characters and fight each other in all…

DAN: “Yes I enjoy potatoes very much. I haven’t eaten many potatoes on set because that would seem like an act of cannibalism. The canteen does provide them but I steer clear.” MANIA: What’s one fact about Strax that people might not know? DAN: “He cooks a mean soufflé!” MANIA: If Strax became the Prime Minister what would be the first thing he’d do? DAN: “Quadruple defence spending and spending going towards more tanks.

Bravely Second: End Layer If you finished Bravely Default, you’ll definitely want to check out the sequel when it comes to 3DS! The game picks up two and a half years after the original ended, and will play pretty similarly – the developers have said they want the player to focus on the story, and that they don’t want them getting lost in the game world! There’s a new ‘Consecutive Chance’ feature, which lets you fight your enemies more than once to get more XP from them – great for grinding! Platform: 3DSStyle: RPGPublisher: NintendoOut: 2016 Day of the Tentacle Remastered The original Day of the Tentacle released in 1993, so it’s definitely due for a remaster! This is a classic point-and-click adventure game, where you talk to people and…

The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes Gameplay: The new Zelda game is pretty different from the last few, YAKs – it’s a three player game where you solve puzzles together! You can play alone as well, in which case you switch between three different Links on the screen. This is more of a puzzle game than an adventure game – the levels are really small, and you need to figure out how to make the three Links work together to beat down baddies and hit switches! The best way to play is with two mates in the room with you – it’s a bit hard to work things out online without voice chat – but if you’re playing alone, there’s still fun to be had. The puzzles are a…

MANIA: Tell us more about Yarny. What kind of a dude is he? SAHLIN: “Yarny is a helper. He’s on a quest to mend a broken bond. The idea is that, what if love and the bond between people were real physical things, like strands of yarn? So he can tie someone’s life back together.” MANIA: Who is this bond between? SAHLIN: “It’s between an old woman and her family . A lonely grandma!” MANIA: Do you think kids will get a lot out of this game? SAHLIN: “Absolutely!
